Weekend Combat Test: Thanks for your feedback, round 2 is around the corner!

Thanks a lot for participating in the Gameplay Beta weekend on Steam! We’ve been caught up reading all the quality feedback we got on all the Absolver boards, and we apologize for not getting back to the community earlier!

We’re running a new test session this weekend, again focused on Gameplay iterations to prepare for the 1.16 patch. Please bear in mind that the 1.16 patch will have new content, we’re just not revealing it yet .

You’ll find below all the information needed to enter the Beta: dates, hours, how to get in and saves recommendations! The Full Patch Note is at the bottom of this post.

Steam Beta Information

How to get in and general information

We are going to run an open beta for all Absolver Steam players, it will be accessible via the “Beta” tab, in the “Properties” of Absolver in Steam. No code is required to access the Beta. You can already enter the branch on Steam, but please note that the new build will only be available in a few hours.

The objective of this beta is to test some changes to the combat gameplay, gather feedback and data, and finally validate or not these changes for the next official patch.

Opening Hours

The beta servers will be opened at the following times:

Saturday March 3rd, Sunday March 4th:

Europe: 5pm > 9pm UTC

US: 6pm > 10pm EST

Singapore: 6pm > 10pm UTC+8

Sydney: 6pm > 10pm UTC+11

About your saves

You can copy and paste your main save folder content in the newly created “Beta” folder, once you have launched the Beta game at least once (so the branch folder and its corresponding save folders are created).

Please note that we do not recommend using your Beta save in the actual game, during Beta or once it is over: compatibility issues can occur.

In any case, we recommend backing up your save folder if you want to use it in the gameplay Beta.

You’ll find below via the link all details regarding this weekend’s testing session! All comparisons are made with the Patch 1.14 values.
